Now, answer the question which you really don't seem to want to answer. If
God created a living cell by DESIGN, and it was then able to harness random
mutations, and through selection search through the sequence space and give
rise to the rest of the plant and animal kingdom, why is that NOT design? As
I said in my post and as Loren pointed out to you (obviously futilely) that
design is not tied to a view in which each critter is individually created.
The initial design and creation of a cell with the potential to give rise to
other living forms is also design. Please explain why it isn't design?
